Its really cold in NYC, so I have to keep it indoor. Is that ok? My room is generally kind hot? (any info. you may have before I buy)

Fukien tea is an indoor bonsai. Prefers direct sunlight. Mine has been blooming continuously ,since I received it.

Indoors is fine, but it needs light. Mine gets about 4-6 hrs of direct light from a nearby window. The other important thing is water. Don't let the soil be dry for more than 1 day, and don't let it sit soaking bottom up. As long as your room is not over 90f or below 60 that's fine. Mine still shows those tiny white flowers from time to time after almost a year.

I'd like to help, but mine died indoors after doing well for only a year :-(

I keep mine indoor and have had it for about 5 months without a problem. I do have to water every other day.

That cooler will only help if it's right by you. Return it if you're looking for more. I use it in my utility room for a couple of small dogs and put it right by their beds. Ice does help.

We have it in the guestroom and the guest love it. It is cool at night so your should not have to worry about sweating too much.

Ken, I use it indoors, but I suppose if there is not too much moisture outside when you use it it would work ok. You might need a stronger solution such as those gas powered radiators. It is worth a try. You probably could return it if it does not do the job for you. It works well indoors.

I think you might have to check your Freon first. Does the temperature really gets to 76 in your bedroom?

Jamuny,I checked the instruction booklet that you're advised to keep. The only thing it says is do not use the unit in a room that has less than 43 square feet of floor space. That is small, but that does not answer your question. I do know, though, that a room of about 12 feet by 12 feet can be heated without a problem. If it is very cold, the unit will remove the chill. You can set the thermostat to adjust the temperature, if that will help. Large rooms with high ceilings won't be heated very well in a reasonable amount of time. I hope this helps.

Are you sure the unit is set on "cool" and not just "fan"? I have done that before. Otherwise it must not be working right. We have our unit in a second house which I know dates back to about 1900, so it is not well insulated nor does it have energy efficient windows. The downstairs is 30' by 25', with four rooms that are all connected, so you can make a circle through the rooms. We have the unit in one room and a large fan in the opposite corner of the house to keep the air moving. We were just there and for 2 days with temps in the high 80's the EdgeStar kept the downstairs at 69-70 degrees. Are you sure the unit is set on "cool" and not just "fan"? I have done that before.

Absolutely not!! It is a small personal heater to have to get you toasty in a cool room. But I obviously disagree with a few of the other answers.

That depends on how well insulated the room is And how closed off you can make it. if you start it before the room gets to hot it might keep it comfortable As long as the outdoor temp doesn't get too high.

Oh yes, but I don't think you want to keep it on long or it will really get very hot in room. When I turn mine on at lowest setting for around 5-7 minutes the room-about 400 sq ft- is well warm enough to turn it off. Also the first setting-didn't know this-cools, then second and third heat. Will work for me quite well living in hot climate but with cold Winters. Very pleased with it. One thing also is it MUST be on flat surface, not carpet or it goes off. They call it a safety feature and it's on the bottom if not connected to hard surface constantly, goes off. So I set it bit higher on wooden stool and works fine.

I would assume if room was a proper temperature, shouldn't be a problem. Also, mattress buffers. Of course, if in a basement or cold room, could be an issue, I guess.

If you have a small room it's fine as long as you don't expect the room to be really cold...this air conditioner uses a smaller amount of electricity but isn't a big cooler.... Don't get me wrong it will cool a room and keep it coo it's just not... Well lets say really powerful.

On level 1 it's fine. We only keep it on level 1, that seems to be sufficient. On the highest level it is pretty loud. We use it in a 600sqft space, which is not recommended, and it cools the whole room :) hope this helps!

I keep the temp. in the house at 58* during winter nights.. [We all have down blankets on our beds.] It has to get really cold for the central heat to turn on. I ONLY turn it on when I go to bed and usually the second time I wake up [during the night] I turn it off. My heating bill is much less that my A/C bill in the summers!

We live near Pittsburgh, PA. It gets cold very cold here some times in the single digits. When I used it for my granddaughter I never put anything underneath it, just the clothes she was wearing. I loved this for my granddaughter. I think you would be fine and wouldn't be disappointed in your purchase. If you are out for long periods of times like taking a walk ... I think you would need something else, but just going from your house to your car or your care into stores or taking to sitters you will be fine or even walking a few blocks. It is very warm inside.

Mine stays in a bonus room over the garage and we only heat and cool when we use the room. It depends on your climate, but mine has been unaffected by the temp changes. I was a little concerned, but the kit is really pretty sturdy. It's cute! It can really be played.

It will be very hard to mantein 65 degrees on 650 sq. Feet, & if is not on the temp will drop fast. It is good in bathroom or on in smaller rooms. And watch the electric bill. But it is still very good. I love mine
